Shooting in North Stoneham: unit bases and access
North Stoneham is about 2 miles south-west of Eastleigh, in Hampshire. We’re happy to travel to North Stoneham for shoots. We bring hog roasts to 683 places across Hampshire.
North Stoneham is roughly 67 miles from central London, within easy reach for London-based crews. Nearby historic houses include South Stoneham House (1.3 miles south) and Southampton Tudor House and Garden (4 miles south). Historic houses are popular locations, and most keep cooking well away from the house, so plan the unit base with locations. The coast is within about 4 miles of North Stoneham, and coastal unit bases can be exposed, so plan where crew will eat.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with sandwiches from a shop, a hot hog roast keeps morale up. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why us?
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Our staff serve and clear
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Cooked on the day, low and slow

How it works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. In December, daylight in North Stoneham ends around 4:00pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
